The Marin County Middle School/Junior High School Cross Country Championship was founded in October, 1971 by the Marin Country Schools Coach and Administrator, Don Meroff. Each year between 400 and 500 students from every middle and junior high school in Marin County run in the championship meet held at various locations.
The course length varies from year to year with the length established collaboratively by all participating coaches. All participants who compete in the race receive a ribbon. The top ten runners receive a medal. All competitors will run by grade level and gender.
Please contact the Physical Education Teacher at your school to find out how to participate on your Cross Country team, and to get information about regional meets.
